Well, here is the response from O&O:

"Dear Mr Morgan,

thank you for your request.

I'm sorry but I can not tell you why "Windows Live OneCare" does not show
the O&O Screensavers file.

Is there an other firewall installed on your system which may block the
start of the screensaver?

Since we use TCP/IP as an internal communication protocol, a particular port
must be free for this. Please read the following information:

When O&O Defrag starts up, I receive an error message (10061)/my firewall
reports an access attempt. Why? What can I do about this?

The communication between the components of O&O Defrag (e.g. the Agent and
the
GUI) is based on TCP/IP. This communication takes place only internally, and
doesn't access the internet. However, most firewalls are programmed to
recognize internal IP communication, so you receive a warning message.

You don't have to turn off your firewall! Simply open up port 50300. Since
O&O Defrag automatically checks access privileges, there can be no external
access over this port even if you are connected to the internet.


Best regards / Mit freundlichen Gruessen

I have done as requested and opened port 50300 but have not let the computer
alone long enough to see if this works. I think I should do a restart,
anyway.
